my corsa understeer really badly when i go around round da bouts, fair enough i tend to slow for them so that could be a solution, but would changing to top set of tyres help?

as luca said
and have back suspension really stiff with tyres at a high psi so it skips round corners better.

Do strut braces reallllly make any difference whatsoever? I'm sure that if I had paid a hundred quid for a 4 foot piece of metal i'd think so, but really?

Someone should put some strain gauges on parts of the corsa to see how much movement there is before and after.

they help stop body roll must quality suspensions along with anti roll bars have very little body roll anway
always have a strut brace when fitting a bigger engine though
